Ryanair Chief Executive Michael O'Leary is poised to receive a handsome €100m bonus if he stays at the airline.
His mammoth payout offer comes after the low-cost carrier's shares hit a key performance target on Thursday.
O'Leary will be given shares worth €111m (£93.5m) if he remains at the airline until the end of July 2028 because the company's share price stayed above €21 for 28 days.
The deal, reached in December 2022, was designed to ensure that the 64-year-old stayed on as the boss of the company.
The bonus is one of the biggest in European corporate history and would be good value compared to the salaries of football stars, the Irishman told investors earlier this month.
